Well
Yes
Lets do the same thing
Ok
Same
I gtg now
No worries
Good runs
Yes it was
When console gets the DLC, will it have a first day discount like PC had?
We can try again later
Yes
Pog
Right?
It should
@hot sigil keep in mind, when the game got released on pc, there was a sale, but when it released on console, no sale. We SHOULD get a discount, but that doesnāt mean we will (honestly we deserve a discount after more than a year of buggy content)
Woah mama
Yes
Did a console date get announced for consoles yet?
Nope
Has a date for when we will get a date on console SoTV release out yet?
Console deserves something after being 2nd rate for everything since release
Please⦠just
I just want updates within the same week
Even same month.
Anything
Just does not work like that
Unlike pc, they have to port 3 different versions of the game
today i shall attempt to unlock some alt abilities
Hi, it's me. one of the like 30 people on console who've beaten mithrix on monsoon
Did it too
I tried e1 and couldn't clear stage one xD
nice
failed the "clear stage 3 without taking damage" thing for Huntress because apparently shields count as health so I wasted my lunar coins on transcendence
Time to unlock an artifact I gueds
Get some Topaz brooches when you get the command artifact
I had command and 3 topaz brooches
still, don't they only work if you keep killing a lot of stuff? Early in a stage nothing spawns
Got artifact of sacrifice so yay
I had shaped glass
spawned in and immediately got shot by a wisp so the challenge was completely nullified lmao
guess I'll just kill Twisted Scavenger this run to get some lunar coins back
Try more than 3
and dead
Twisted scavenger threw some orange stuff my way and my health kinda vanished
oooo
awesome
the run so far
Looking good
thanks!
Furthest i can do is 23
I've never went past stage 8
a tip? royal capacitor, if you get 10 fuel cells and a single soulbound catalyst you get a recharge every kill. some ukuleles and you can clear an entire stage with one tap
how do you unlock royal capacitor?
beat a teleporter boss with 2 shrines of the mountain
it doesn't do as much damage as preon, but it has a base cooldown of 15s
@outer mango but have you beaten Mithrix on all eclipses for ALL characters tho? I havenāt met another console player who has done that.
never seen preon, probably haven't unlocked it
You have to get to the snow biome and unlock its chest in under 10 mins
Itās 20 seconds
oh, so it is
that sounds overly difficult
like half the unlocks tbh
also double Mithrix was fun
Youāll get the hang of it
I used a mix of artifacts with loader to make it easy
Double spawns but half heath, command, and enemies drop loot but no boxes
finally won another run
Command + Swarm + Kin + Sacrifice is busted
my run is still going strong command + kin
Rush the teleporter bc loader can pretty much solo with no to little items for a bit and all your possible loot will be near you while the teleport is charging
Green should prioritize you razorwire and the seed that gives you leech
Normal should be movement speed
if I make it up to round 50 I'm gonna try mythrix
And boom easy preon unlock
that did not go as planned
Stage 1
Overloading Wisp: Horde of Many
is playing as Loader
oof
Donāt use Kin if you are trying to rush the preon
without Kin I just die tho
ill finish this run first, then sure, let's try
aaaaand dead to blazing lemurians as usual
Aight let's try xD
I don't do vcs, sorry
Thatās fine with me. Just split loot evenly
Oh and if you are using loader prioritize razor wire and leeching seed for uncommon. And I made the lobby
aight
We can do it in drizzle also for you
oki
You did monsoon lol
You gotta move the difficulty over you had it monsoon
oh
Thatās why you died so fast
thought only one person could choose the difficulty
How's the run doing?
omg the minimum amount for the Max damage so far this run is 14million
I'm not even taking damage anymore
might start just stacking up fuel cells and then go to mythrix with 30 charges of preon
Sorry @wanton cypress I got surrounded by malachite spikes as I was landing
The preon is kinda luck based on if you get rallypoint delta early
I can help you grab other loader unlocks though
oh no
I pressed Y by accident
Your good I got it fast
bruhhh
you got a red on stage 1
ohhh
nice
@wanton cypress donāt Enter it
Once we nuke that should unlock all of loaders stuff
found one
209 minutes in, 38 stages. IT'S ALL GODDAMN SCAVENGERS
i didn't even know it was possible to get past 8 xD
@neat quarry
come sit on this, I'll look for the other one since I think I have more move speed
lemme check
If you were dashing and using your stuff right full loader unlocked, a couple items unlocked like the bands
I only unlocked her alternate grapple and the equipment from rally
You didnāt unlock thunder slam?
nope
a lot of them are
especially character alts
Btw to unlock thunder fist. Get some movement speed zip wire and charge your secondary then release as you are heading towards some one
Thunder fist literally fixes all your wisp issues
i see
But thatās all the time I have for now
But you have an idea how to build him now right
yep
thanks a lot :D
And you have the nemesis artifact now so you can farm the loaders in the bulwark armory now
Np
I like that build for him even without ceremonial daggers bc the proc chains are easy to make happen and bc your melee it gives you sustain along with letting focus targets while ranged targets kill them self from smacking you

to try see if I could pummel mythrixed bitch ass back to the primordial soup in under a minute
two screenshots to show all the unlocks
Just killed Aurolienite for the first time
nice
my damage dealt afterwards lmao
hell yeah!
Just how much movespeed do I need lmao
I have 10 Goat Hooves but that's still not enough to get the alternative fist
I mean, you need 15 (I think) to get +200%
I see
Guess I'll get some more
I'm at 25 hooves, still not fast enough somehow
yeah
i start charging, I start sprinting then I release towards an enemy
I'll take a clip and share once the run ends
actually I can share ir now
what am I doing wrong?
I have to go soon so I'll end the run xD
aaaaand dead
level 99, got decimated by lunar chimeras (the big ones) while charging the last pillar
wasn't my longest run, but it sure as hell was the most chaotic
tries Rainstorm run
no artifacts
dies immediately due to extremely large numbers of wisps
commando is a low damage mistake
press the button down that corresponds to his first skill on them
I was consistently using all skills
wisps are just too hard to hit with commando and mercenary and literally a non-threat with literally anyone else
Like
basically every other character has a fast reloading ability that hits in an area
Commando doesn't so aiming at wisps is a massive pain even with aim assist cranked to the maximum
Yeah i think I'm done with Rainstorm, Commando and Mul-T
The amount of enemies is comparable to Swarm on Drizzle, which is insane, Commando requires pixel perfect aiming and to consistently shoot at weak enemies for almost a whole second and Mul-T is just too slow to avoid attacks and gets disintegrated if anything that's not a beetle spawns
If you use the grapple and charge it mid air u donāt even need any movespeed just release mid grapple and aim downward
I'm just wondering If any one knows a release date for the Void dlc on CONSOLE will be
we only know it should be Q2, so between April and June
okay cool thanks
My fucking power cut out and I lost incorruptible on stage 19 to an elder Lemurian
oof
Hey if i got ROR2 on console is there a way i could get it on pc? Like is it availble through Game pass or something cause I got it on Xbox.
I just dont got the money to rebuy ror2 and id rather just transfer if possible š„ŗ
back to drizzle I go lmao
how did you get past stage one as mul-t
power mode
My switch crashed because I played with Rex until stage 10
any advice for mithrix' revolving lines attack? it always screws me over
Don't be in the air
ok but what about ground movement
Stay as far away from mithrix as possible
Preferably on the ramp platforms
Will the dlc come out for console?
Yes
Ok
Still i dont understand why some dlcs for console on different games dont come out but thanks for telling me
I could swear you were supposed to be close for that attack
transformed into heretic for the first time, was fun
transformed into heretic for the first time, was fun
Hello everyone 
Pins
Check em
I DID IT BOIS
AFTER INNUMERABLE TRIES
THE MOON WELCOME COMMITTEE
FIRE ELITE BULLSHIT
KNOCKBACK FUCKERY
AND SO MANY OTHER UNTIMELY DEMISES
BANDIT MASTERY ON THE NINTENDO SWITCH!
I'm actually shaking its taken so long
Nice
I love final phase mithrix when he ignores ohp and one shots me
Is their a date for the dlc for console
No

Congratulations man.....
Now do eclipse š”
Jk
Eclipse on console is hell but I'm managing
Don't know what I'll do for commando and rex
It took me 6 months in total to be it on all survivors 
Commando shouldnāt be too hard
Yo switch players have you got slicing winds? Because i just unlocked it
Rex should be okay I just need to practice again used be my main
And commando is just get essence of heresy per run otherwise time to watch paint dry

It is a good ability once you practice the timing for the expose debuff
I can finally play merc and feel right
I just realized, I have to redo all olds survivors eclipse 8 again when the dlc realese on console, beacuse of the golden frame/square around the survivor profile....
I really hope that the bugs get fix, i don't want to revive the pain of eclipse 8 with bugs...
As long as they don't remove my slicing I'm fine
Commando is fun
True
Either very far or close, if you are close than moving the opposite way of the spin works more often than not
Being very far works because of the large amount of safe area between the beams, at that distance
Correct me if im wrong, purity does the opposite of 57, it rolls an extra per stack and takes the lower of the 2?
Someone help me please
What is wrong?
Ok
I got overloading worm and died to fall damage
@long mantle lol did this captain person who disconnected hook you up with reds?
I got the guaranteed red on sundered Grove
Ahh nvm then. My bad; thought you were someone else lol
Lol, all it takes is a single hardlight afterburner to give bandit flight.
bandit already has flight lol
if you have enough wisps to hit you can just go up and up and up
but hardlight afterburner requires nothing
and hardlight afterburner doesn't have trickshot fun
and this method doesnt require afterburner
I've landed on top of vagrants just by switching between lights out and smoke bomb
Okay, but which is easier, swarming enough enemies to do that, or collect 5 greens and spend a single lunar coin with command?
is there still crazy knockback
@hot sigil i can never get an Imp Overload
So I tried another Mul-T run yesterday
and miraclusly got to Stage 2
guess I won't unlock Power Mode for a while xD
We do a little crashing
Also I unlocked Royal Capacitor yesterday
my switch didn't like the intensity of four Grandparents at once
speaking of Grandparents
what does that sun debuff they stack on you even do?
Pretty sure it increases the fire damage you take
Don't fully know though. Best bet is to look on the wiki
Why do you have 64 ukulele
To let them hear the music
Says nothing about the 9 clovers
They donāt matter when you see 64 ukulele
Makes sense
K they do matter
I. Am. Speed
You shouldāve taken a clip of how fast you were going
Well it nearly crashed my game
I was able to use slide from one side of the map to the other
average command + swarm + sacrifice fan
Oh my god itās like that on only stage 14? Iāve been up to stage 20 with over 300 items, and it never got that laggy
Bruh
It was because my ukuleles were proccing of themselves and proccing sticky bombs and even more ukulele
Oh and the main culprit was meat hook
Just donāt pick up meat hook with an excessive amount of clovers and youāll be fine
Thatās what breaks things
PS4 superiority
Fuck this game i lost my slicing unlock
unfortunate
when is surviver of the void comming to ps4?
april-june!
Make sure to go to the main and swap around loadouts before closing the game
Thats the least you should do in generell rn
gets god run
gets like 7 unlocks
gets to stage 18
g a m e c r a s h e s
optimization pog š
at least it saved the unlocks
I unlocked basically everything on Mul-T as well as the 200% attack speed item, Artifact of Honor and Chaos
Plan was to unlock 57 leaf clover, which iirc needs you to get to stage 20, but alas
I had so much shit, no wonder it crashed tbh
and in case something op spawned, like scavengers, I had
2 preon launchers
and
like
9 fuel cells
I would have mained merc if my slicing winds didn't vanish
Now I'm never playing him again
Because fuck unlocking that again
stage eighteen? I'm on stage 69
I've been through the trial of metamorphosis every single loop
It was my longest ever run stage-wise
and it crashed
angy
fš
NOOOO
IT WAS MALACHITE PARENTS
HUNDREDS OF THEM
I've never been so distraught
5 hours of work
all gone
I had 13 happiest masks one run because the soup things only had them and i had like 60 something scraps
Mithrix soup not bazaar
Void fields would've been impossible if not for my god run
I had Parents, Clay Templars, Jellyfish and Elder Lemurians
with Swarm
Once had grandparents as the first enemy
oh
Literally had a joel moment there
I remember i blurted out "Granddad????" when they appeared
I guess i could try to get some more unlocks
I p much unlocked everything that i need
I still have the 3d printer one to do xD
Only thing is like slicing winds and the GOD DAMN ENTRY FOR OVERLOADING WORM that i don't have
I still haven't seen an overloading worm
I have ALL enemy entries
Except overloading
Don't even care about getting the rest of the stage logs i want overloading
How far into a run do they even spawn?
They spawn exclusively on abyssal, rallypoint, and sky meadow. All really rare at any point except 5 loops
5 loops
switch could barely handle 2 and a half
I feel ya
tbf
I had swarm sacrifice and command
But not exactly 5 just 5 confirms it
I got max crit stage one xD
just gotta get a god load out and loop a bunch with kin and command
my first exclusively overloading worm stage was stage 27
I'm gonna play the original ror1 now

It feels nice not being instantly nuked by fire elites
I might play ror1
does bleed just not proc for some of yall sometime?? I have a dagger, shatterspleen, and 25% crit, and I can see the crit effect on some enemies but it doesn't proc bleed
I also think I just experienced the invincible enemies glitch. I'm playing as rex and my primary stopped hitting every once in a while
this console rebuild better be worth it, I'm not about to lose my mastery run to this bs
Yea proccs randomly stop working
ufgh
OH MY FUCKING GOD
I JUST GOT ISNTAKILLED BY THE MOON WELCOME PARTY
FUCK THIS
LITERALLY LESS THAN 5 SECONDS
Did you have a Dios for that procc bug to happen?
BLAZING LUNAR CHIMAERA BULLSHIT
no
I'm so fucking pissed
K it is just random then
All of that work for "Oop, funny rapidfire bullshit"
Yea Im waiting I dont even wanna attempt dealing with this garbo
There wasn't even a way to deal with it
I'm going back to obliteration runs
that was the most bullshit way I've ever died
I have a contender
oh jeez
Silly little glitch
When I looked at a lunar pod on the moon it highlighted the whole stage
Is anyone else having issues with Xbox servers? Canāt connect with a friend
Whole multiplayer is shitty
Different people have to host and thatās the only way around it
Hey I saw there was a mod on pc for pvp, does anyone know if that will be a feature for console at any point in time?
no
Definitely wonāt be a feature
Good God I was smart to pick up a Dios
activates Shrine of Combat
you have summoned Scavengers to fight
Say goodbye to your procs
RUN DONE
WOOO
that was intense
unlocked the clover and saw my first four overloading worms
also
here's the aforementioned very cursed shrine of combat
SO ARE TITANS SUPPOSED TO STILL HAVE THE AUTO TRACKING LAZER SHIT AND ENSSENTALLY ONE SHOT YOU
YEP š
Sometimes the laser stick in you and sometimes it just follow you with a little delay, basically a 50/50 chance
It doesn't do that on PC right
It does
I basically spammed royal capacitor
it works surprisingly well
I thought they changed it to just follow the ground
scavenger jumpscare
Before the 1.0 update they just follow you, after the 1.0 update they change it to the way we are talking right now.
I also have a clip of me melting the Twisted Scavenger with the power of Royal Capacitor, 9 Fuel Cells and Soulbound Catalyst
Surviours of the void when 
Eclipse 3 in a nutshell...
https://c.tenor.com/6oSEDVpeB-YAAAAM/dies-of-cringe-cringe.gif
The power of Thor.
PD: at the end the scavenger die by a ATG out of the explosion of bettle guard with shatterpleen (i don't know how it call the boss item of imp overlords).
Yes
You need to stay close to the stone titan
Itāll have more trouble keeping up with you that way
Sad
Ok so
Mul-T with Power Mode and double Scrap Launcher is
awesome
still can't believe my 6+ hour run died at stage 70 because of malachite parents
They are the only thing I'm missing logbook wise
Youāre also missing lemurians and elder lemurians 
Little oversight for when they ported the anniversary on console
Why is gearbox so good at what they do
I understand the console dlc is some time in q2 but have they fixed console to any sort of playability yet?
Absolutely yes
Would I put screenshots of my latest run results in here or where?
You can do it here
Max 10 images i think
Ok
My last one where I was just having fun
This was my most recent from last night. The reason it doesnāt look like a proper acrid build is because well, it wasnāt originally an acrid build.
I can't even be remotely be upset at people anymore for going drizzle because even that's hard
I use drizzle as a warmup for me
Cuz well, I love playing huntress
But I hate being a glass cannon
there's too much bullshit for the game to be enjoyable on monsoon
Iām gonna start looking at ways to cheese my way to obliterate on Monsoon
Simply play a better game
Ror1 for instance
Nah
I am the last one
https://youtu.be/XRLseKIInRQ
I've done it. My SECOND video about Risk of Rain 2. Expect more, because this game is hella addicting.
Enjoy, my dudes, dudettes, and non-binary bros!
If you hate these videos about Risk of Rain 2, professionally e-mail me at fckyourself@gmail.com so I can tell you how much I don't give a sht.
Screenshots and videos
monsoon used to be fun on console š©
Runs used to be exhilarating
now its just trying to avoid dying to the 9847437 bugs that you can come across
I will get better soon......
I am going to shoot myself if survivors of the void doesnāt come out on the 25th
idk rainstorm and monsoon just kinda seem bullshit sometimes
getting one shot by fuck all attacks
and drizzle actually begins to hard the moment you loop so it's not like it's piss easy baby mode
but that's besides the point i just came here to say it's cool how switch has gyro aiming and literally no other platform supports that :)
really wanna see how that works with railgunner maybe ill actually be able to aim
gyro >>>
gyro is so nice compared to sticks
im sure if i played commando with gyro id actually like him
cause i blow dick at aiming
honestly that's the only place where nintedo supersedes other platforms
mhm
Anyone else's lunar coin amount jumping back and forth on switch?
I don't even die to bugs that much on monsoon
i mostly die to the insane amount of spawns
i usually die to stupid ass scaling that spawns a fire elite golem on stage 1
wait
that's not meant to happen?
It feels normal
I thought monsters spawning as if you had swarm quantity wise and elites early on were features of monsoon
that would make the game ridiculously unfun and hard in general
so the giant clouds of lesser wisps are unintentional?
also tbh i thought that was the whole point of monsoon
beat the game on bullshit mode for a nice skin and a meme lunar item
Whatās the meme item
Purity
Oh the piece of trash
Man, Mul-T wih Powermode and double Scrap Launcher has won me 3 runs already, the latest without any artifacts on to boot
When you win a run with an S tier survivor and with a broken ability
The best boy
lol
One message removed from a suspended account.
I think the devs said they are trying to fix if not all, most bugs in the dlc. Dont remember 100% though
It's not on console yet, coming sometime Q2
Saves are bugged, switching around loadouts and going to the main menu may help
One message removed from a suspended account.
They are also rebuilding the whole console version tho
I feel like itās be cool to have cross platform between all console players
I understand why it wouldnāt work out the best with pc cross play with console, due to mods and shit
I agree, would be nice
@pseudo kindle
@affirmative#9079

@affirmative#9079
Mythrix gets halcyon seed right?
Well what I mean is when he steals your items does he use it?
i dont think so. if so, it wasnt too effective
still can't believe my 6hr+ run got ended by my game crashing . died at 70, had a bunch of bulwarks ambry trips that probably added up to more than an hour
Actually a unique interaction happens where you use the item as normal
And mith has some special dialogue
Unfortunate
mul-t's nail gun, despite is 0.6 proc coefficient, is literally fucking god teir with crit goggles, tri-tip, and scythe. add AtG and some clovers? easy stage 30
yeah š
@lost otter along with the dlc, consoles are getting an update where they are completely redoing the game from its foundations. This, in theory, shoul fix and remove all of the game breaking bugs we see in consoles now. Now, that being said, this doesnāt mean there wonāt be new bugs, however, because of how they are doing it, it will be related to pc and therefore easier to identify and fix the problem (in other words, no waiting months at a time for a small fix here and there)
@ruby timber sorry about @ you but i have a very important question.
when survivors of the void comes out on console will it have the patch that recently came out on pc?
i believe so yes
I am asking beacuse before, console updates didn't have the patch that PC normally had after realese of every mayor update.
ive just clarified with the devs - yes all the fixes that we've already made on the PC will be included on the console launch version
think of them as your beta testers
(you will have your own bugs)
yay
is PC kinda yalls guinea pigs?
Ok thanks SeventeenUncles
mfw overloading elder lemurian on stage 4
Mfw I step in the beebleās fire elite trail on stage 1
got to stage 35 and crashed xD
I basically had infinite Royal Capacitor
Sacrifice, Command, Swarm and Kin
killed Aurelionite twice
Seeing a massive gerd of Malachite Imp Overlords was
something
Scavenger only stages and Void Reaver only stages were hella stressful
I took some screenshots since I knew it could crash, I'll share in a bit
Just, damn lol
He doesn't steal the seed
I wish he did ;-;
I wanna be flattened by Big Goldie
You'll get your wish once the dlc drops xD
my run right before crashing
Q2 2022.... Q2 2022 my boy.....
can't wait for that
am very much hyped
I have to keep resetting runs with Rex until I get a Clay Dunestrider in the desert sonI can yeet it in a hole
Yea that ones a little annoying
Why
jetpack joyride mul t is the closest i can get until sotv drops on console
Just everyone wait for SoTV release on console, there gonna be so many people reporting thunder gauntlet getting fixed as a bug
Itās gonna be hilarious
Although I am going to miss broken thunder gauntlet
Thunder Gauntlet is best
I like shocking every single wisp and lemurian around me in one skill
Imo they should make console thunder gauntlet base game
No the skill is broken
Wdym by make console T gauntlet base game?
It shocks everything around you in a sphere, itās meant to only shock in a cone in front of you
Yeah ik
Itās busted
Yes
Make it so it shocks in a sphere as part of the game
Ig so
Trust me you will see the difference
Probably
You will actually have to position yourself instead of just punch things
I mean it's not hard to position anyway
Ik cus I'm learning that
It's definitely one of my weaknesses
My first solo Monsoon run
username is bungus
plays engineer
checks out xD
I sure hope so lol
Engineer Gaming
Finally got Desperado
Literally every other character:
can easily and consistently get rid of Lesser Wisps
Mercenary:
curls up in a ball and cries
I just try to dodge around them until I can blinding assault them
Having to wait to recharge your utility for every single wisp is
a bit of a pain
tries Artificer
can't kill anything because doodoo primary cooldown
gotta cycle those skills
I tried
got gangbanged by golems
Unfortunate
like every attempt ends the same way
despite swarm halving enemy HP, she just can't kill stuff in time
flamethrower
ah yes, the low damage, low range long cooldown ability
compared to her other attacks
ion bomb does do a lot of damage
Whats the name of mercenaries alternative special
Iāve never heard of that but Iām not surprised
Slicing Winds
Had to end my run because I couldn't kill anything
Yeah it's so hard to get and it's not even worth it
Slicing winds is better than eviscerate
The bomb? I use it whenever it's up
even tho it's shit against flying targets
Nah you lose i-frames
It is a trade off
You get range which Is infinitely better
Sw is incredible
Also expose
Yeah
Very strong
And more potential damage
Sw with brainstalks???
It has multi target, can proc bands
So can eviscerate
No it cant
It can proc atg which can proc bands
Every skill can proc bands
Hey if I ain't gonna abuse bugs who am i
Mander suppressive fire can't?
Due to it counting items external damage as the damage of the skill
It can with enough damage boosts
With damage boosts
Evis is in the same boat
Everything can but base mander is unable to proc bands without Grenade
Just got fire elite equip 30 sec into a run
Yeah I'm aware that if you pick up a fystal or glass evis can
Eviscerate good because iframes and merc needs them since he dies if he breathes too hard
True but sw is crazy
š¤Ø
Sw takes merc from mid to pretty alright
I wish they buffed Artificer 's primary
They should make arti primary infinite
No they shouldnāt
Wrong
yeah
you only have 4 charges and you gotta use 2-3 to kill a Beetle
That would be broken
I believe arti is fine
Guys arti needs it
how is it broken
you need to unload the whole clip for a beetle or two
I'd understand if it oneshot smaller enemies like bandit, but it don't so
El bandito is in a league of his own
Never really liked bandit myself
then again, I am the guy named commando so I guess I have no rights
Special not utility
Yeah
ehh
lights out is ok
imo Arti has good synergy with other players, but solo can be tough sometimes, might just be me who thinks that 
Me when I go behind a beetle and hit him for 1200% damage
I should do a run to unlock his alt special
well for me personally my #1 special is power mode
And proceed to do it again because my cool downs aren't real
it can be fun to mix the primaryās or just go dual and tear shit up
Power Mode Mul-T feels like bullying the enemies
as long as you play on Drizzle
I haven't unlocked power mode cause I never get alters on stage 6
Baby gamer
Then make one
Eclipse is the real shit
Newt alters?
Yes
I tried rainstorm and even with the added armor it's nigh impossible to kill all enemies in time
Go find them
out here suffering on eclipse because of bad rng oof
You don't learn anything playing on drizzle
Just play monsoon then
become better
But I play on monsoon cause I'm a fake gamer who is afraid of eclipse
Yeah
Had merc god run on e2 earlier
When I came back I was no longer goated on the sticks
So Iāve gone back to rainstorm
Monsoon is pretty easy tbh, now that I play eclipse

True
I'd imagine it would be the same if I went to eclipse
I just wanna unlock everything that isn't sw first
Fuck the slicing winds unlock frfr
just get lucky
I have a mando run on e1 paused rn and I got fire elite affix 30 sec in and got some items and now I just got to stage 3 at 11:24
Incredible
or constantly stalk #prismatic-trials until people start clamoring about the current trial
No
insane
Cracked, even
Get malachite aspect
Lunar scavs are funny
Only time I got that was when I gave it to an equip drone
I've tried moving on from Drizzle several times
It's lowkey impossible
Drizzle: consistently wins unless I get real unlucky or pick someone who's bad and/or I can't use
Rainstorm: can't get to the Stage one teleporter with anyone because there's double enemies and they do double damage
then keep trying until you make it to stage two
play your best character if you have to
Just kill everything, not really much else to it
I have almost 300 hours in this game and i still can't play acrid correctly so it'll take time
This includes the teleporter
But you'll get it down
Also use captain
Best survivor in the game
Use huntress, mult, loader or mando
Just use who you play best with
Cap is top 3
If not top 1
He's tied with loader but loader is weird for me so that's why I like cap more
Mul-t is 3rd
I donāt use either
I do use mul-t
Mander addiction
yes
Nailgun mult is funny
double nail gun
Disagree
š¤Ø
Cap melts every enemy he comes into contact with
Comparatively maybe but as a seperate survivor sheās great
And then the wisp pile on
And hacking beacon is the best special in the game
Kill them lol
still power mode
Ballista, Rex, powermode
All better
No
Ballista is only good because the rest of the character sucks
Iām gonna pull out the experience card and say that Iāve played all the survivors a lot and can make good judgments
Same here
1950hrs?
fine
No but divide that by 6 and we're square
maybe huntress isnāt all that bad

She is fine, one of the best survivors to play eclipse with
doesnāt mean Iām going to start playing her
If not the best
I like huntress I main her after all but captain is just really funny to me
Had to change my roles reflect my main
At the end of the day is just opinions and it doesn't matter since veind is in the game
Me when I play mercenary 
you stack 14 bleed
you get expose
360% on 14 bleed stacks
Cool
I would have to play merc
Hmm true
And thats torture
I tried Captain a few times
hitting things as him is hard
Don't charge it unless they're long range or a wisp
I already do that
Aiming in general is hard, even more so with Cap and Bandit
I don't have an issue personally so I can't help in that department
Flurry bad
A little
Strafe is more consistent and deals more dot
get real
Flurry needs 60& crit to compete with strafe 
please stop trolling
Should I do a huntress run?
Yes
I guess the answer to this is probably somewhere on here, but whenās consoleās predicted/planned release?
Q2 (April-June).
Probably later Q2
My prediction is late May
pc update when?
Imagine if PC got updates later than us
š¤£
āYeah sundered grove is the worst stage 4 mapā
All of those spawn on grove
I think people dislike Grove for the layout and moving Legendary Chest
the map is also very dark
Not a drizzle Andy? Smh cringu
zased
How do you even do that? I tried it in a new run but I didnāt get launched.
to start eclipse? its in alt gamemodes
The mul-T rocket jump/Jetpack joyride meme you sent
Oh, you need alot of attack speed and you need to alternate between the two to start flying
Ok thank you
You can start flying at around 20 syringes i think?
merc is a VERY skill based survivor
I tried just about everything
add something that bleeds you or a wisp and he's dead
his attacks aren't even that good compared to the other Melee bois
itās all about using those exposes to reset cooldowns
wdym
the blue circles that the 3rd slash of his primary inflicts onto enemies
oh those
I always use them
aaaand dead
as soon as a fire elite spawns the run is over xD
No ranged capabilities be like
I mean, evis would probably be enough to take it down
nope
unfortunate
one was in enough and as soon as the iframes ended I got toasted by the trail
Well then blinding assault once the evis ends
was on cooldown
I tried
but
console fire trails be like
Yeahā¦
eh, I wouldnāt say merc is a heavy hitter
Heās all about bring so skittish so that nothing can hit you
so his attacks are wet noodles and need procs to do anything?
Oh dear, it's a melee commando xD
as resident commando player I take offense to that
There are a lotta ways to animation cancel and have other tech on merc though, which can easily raise his dps by about 50% on any enemy
Although tbf not everyone enjoys being that sweaty
Yeah
don't most animation cancel things end up giving you carpal tunnel
I just go for the 3rd hit blinding assault extension and thatās about it for āadvancedā tech I do
...maybe
a small price to pay for merc players
The dumbest shit is when you instantly kill a flying boss by body checking them into the ground
I think I'll wait for the dlc with all them bugfixes before trying out merc again
smart idea
If I feel like melee I'll just go punch shit with Loader xD
go ahead
Loader is pretty fun
I never really liked loader myself
Melee acrid if you're feeling spicy
I really need to play more acrid
He's great in co-op
I was trying to win the game at least once as everyone for the logs
wait
wdym melee Acrid
isn't ge mostly melee?
The higher the enemy health, the better his poison is
secondary
Ok acrid is kinda funky
ah, the low damage spitballs
Maybe in the first few stages, melee kinda works, but later on you wanna 100% rely on the poison he spits
me who melee'd Mithrix
oh
UNLESS you use his alternate abilities and passive. Then melee is pretty viable for the whole run
Built different
yes
Acrid is one of the survivors I haven't unlocked any alt for
hmm yes today I will play base melee acrid 
Default acrid is the most relaxing experience in risk of rain 2
Spit, run around the stage for a bit, spit
Enjoy the sights
Very nice
his poison does basically no damage tho
It's % health damage
So it gets stronger the more health enemies have
Which means it'll always be useful no matter how weak you are in any run
And why it's great in co-op, when enemies get a big health boost for every extra player
So many times 3 other ppl will die, and you can trust acrid to just run around and dodge for a bit until the boss melts away
and plus you get satisfaction from the constant tick tick tick sounds
Nice for you
don't you have to constantly reapply it and finish off everyone with melee?
yes
It lasts pretty long, and with just a tiny bit of bleed or whatever, the 1 hp thing doesn't matter anymore
but thatās no issue when they are 1 hit
But yeah early on you do have to either spit again or melee them
I didn't even use my poison properly last rub
*run
I just used the damage of the projectile
brug
dog
2 spits per wisp
because waiting wasn't an option
since ya know
being surrounded by 20+ wisps early on ain't good for your health
Totally
Iāve become rising thunder pilled
just get to level 2 lmao
level doesn't matter against wisps
at any point they'll just shotgun your ass from beyond range
throw your entire body against the horde
I dont find wisps a issue they deal piss damage
they deal a ton of damage
like
1/8 of your health bar per hit
and they're always in large groups
also if you having trouble with wisps, just use commando
commando sucks at killing wisps
yeah on stage 1

Yo word?
I find commando to be amazing at taking down wisps
that's the issue
wisps on stage one are usually what prevents runs from getting past stage one xD
How do I use rising thunder and not have it feel awkward?
You have to walk up to the enemys face and use it
then focus them
Because its mostly vertical
šµ
I do as long as there's no Lemurians around
Its not as lenient as whirlwind
but they be hard to hit
Use loader instead
So true
Lemurians are more dangerous tho
they're hard to dodge, have more health and do more damage
I just like dodging stuff with whirlwind when my cooldowns are happening, and how it can proc things twice
but thereās the chance you will dodge
Wisps is n o
To each their own but rising thunder lets you combo enemies into the air
also overloading lemurians spawn early as hell and they're a menace
its a bit funny
That's pretty neat, yeah
I bet it can get wonky with backup mags
Yeah you can oni combo them mid air
Seems fun
Iāve sent wisps to space with rising thunder
As merc I can't hit wisps
I just run away and pray
Ever tried whirlwind on a sharp slope?
Trimp
ah yes
Best thing in the game
the trimp
Other than slamming
Rising thunder to oni combo a templar
I think that's why I can't love rising thunder like I do whirlwind š no trimp
Just kidnap the Templar lol
templars
most dangerous enemy in the game alongside the moon bois
trimp fans rise up
Maaan it's like clockwork
rising is less lenient and more vertical but it adds more combo factor and mobility to mercs kit in a different way
good sidegrade
Aloy worship unti spawns, there's a perfect trimp ramp right nearby
Perfect to set up a quick slam
Back up mags with thunder get crazy
Understandable
After 1 backup mag with whirlwind, more become sorta useless for dps
